From AP news: Hinting at another aspect of the report, Cheney said Nevada's Yucca Mountain is the ``farthest along and most advanced'' potential high-level nuclear waste repository. Federal law envisions only Yucca Mountain as a potential dump. Advisers, however, say the report won't commit the administration to a position on the site. ======== My advice: stay far away if you see an overturned truck on I95, unless you wear lead underwear.....
Looks like the selection of GW Bush has pretty much sealed the fate of Yucca Mountain. The other possible site was in Utah, but Orin Hatch has too much power to let that happen as long as Bush is president.
